<![CDATA[Hipp commented on <i>Gossip Girl</i> Invades Carroll Gardens, Olds Are Befuddled, Enraged]]> By "South Slope" then, you mean Windsor Terrace? I'm always interesting in what people in different parts of Park Slope consider the boundaries. My roommates think it's 15th Street, where Gerry Mander lives, which is convenient because it puts us safely in the Slope by two sweet blocks. I, however, always know that I've left the boundaries of Park Slope when I look around and no longer see Caribbean women neglected their pasty-faced, caterwauling wards.

<![CDATA[Hipp commented on The Top 50 New York Eccentrics]]> Also, there's a guy on the F train--a little scrawny black dude, with a cowboy hat, all black clothes, and an amp strapped to his back that's always set on Prince-esque levels of chorus--who plays almost nothing but "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" (hey hey, hey hey yeah). I wonder if this is the same as the Bill Withers dude, but I also wonder how anyone could know him as singing only "Ain't No Sunshine" when all I've ever heard him play is "Knockin' On Heaven's Door."

Maybe... maybe they're twins.

Also, what about the guy on the F train that always gives the shpeel about how we see him and his sister on the train every day, collecting food or money, but who also excepts hugs from pretty ladies? His professions that he doesn't care if you're white, brown, black, asian, latino, et cetera have become as much a mainstay as "Stop holding the doors!" is at Jay Street.

<![CDATA[Hipp commented on The Top 50 New York Eccentrics]]> When I met the bum who's family was killed by ninjas, he was actually holding a sign that said "Need some cash so I can go to a club and get taken hope and felt up by some drunk ladies" or something to that effect. I asked him, quite amiably, if he was, by any chance, the "ninjas killed my family" guy. He responded by shuffling his collection of signs until he hit that very one.

Best lunch break ever?

<![CDATA[Hipp commented on Where Are They Now]]> Considering how many people had their smart-phones out and logged onto Facebook, tap-tap-tapping away to search and add everyone within their same conversational orbit as a friend, it's not really surprising that post-Gawker success is endemic.

<![CDATA[Hipp commented on Incompetent Facebook Leaves Open Back Door To Stalker Feature]]> if you type "-+" into the search box, Facebook sends a friend request from matter to anti-matter, who then accepts the request. After a long drawn-own poke war, they decide to meet in Central Park near Ronaldinho's evil, incense-burning twin. After twenty minutes of slider ever-closer to each other on the cement embankment overlooking people rowing their boats backwards, they finally make physical contact, creating an explosion that incinerates most of our solar system. Except, ironically, for Pluto, which goes from demoted planet to sole solar system survivor in the blink of an eye.

However, typing "+-" into the search box teleports you onto your front stoop without your keys, forcing you to wait for three hours until one of your roommates--"who all have real jobs," the voice of your mother says--comes home and lets you in. 'Well,' you think, 'at least I didn't end up spending the whole day on the internet.'

<![CDATA[Hipp commented on 'Weekend Update' With Vlad and Niko]]> Liberty City is to New York City as current SNL is to everything that came before. And, like Liberty City, the current SNL makes me want to wander around killing people. Mostly the people who keep watching the show and thus keeping it from being canceled like a bad check.
